That video was actually pretty funny and sarcastic. Not clicking on Polytrash, so I'm gonna guess they didn't watch it all the way through.

You'd guess wrong. "PewDiePie is taking on Youtube's new advertisment policy in a  new satirical video that promises he's going to be family friendly.”

  My guess is  OP is just being manipulative with his quotes, because literally that is the first sentence polygon wrote.

Yeah, watching the video, it's obvious that he was being sarcastic.

They say the same in their first sentence in the article. You guys are only making yourselves look misinformed here, not Polygon.

Yeah, it was my fault for not checking the link. I shouldn't have relied on LivingMetal's excerpt, but instead of assuming that he took it out of context I assumed that Polygon took it out of context, so I watched the video.

I'm pretty sure he is not in risk of beeing homeless.

He should just do what other Youtubers have been doing recently since Youtube started cracking down, which is find an independent advertiser to sponsor his videos. A number of sites do independent advertising, including Squarespace and Dollar Shave Club. All you have to do is shill for about 30 seconds at the start of the video and write that the video was sponsored in the description. Problem solved, you just found a way around Youtube's changes. 

Hell, Pewds is popular enough he could just move all of his videos to his own website, his fanbase would follow him. Cut out the middle man, get money straight from the advertisers. 

Well, he is an attenton whore. He enjoys to be always in the middle of every discussion. To be called the most popular Youtuber and stuff like that is what he loves. With his own site he could still make a lot of money but people outside of his own site would talk less about him I guess.

It was sarcasm.

Yeah, and it mentions that in the article. Maybe LivingMetal was just trying to teach of us the dangers of taking things out of context?

I'm so over hearing YouTubers whine about their money. If you don't like YouTube being able to monetize or demonetize your videos, or if you don't like being at the whims of advertisers, do something else.

Ask your fans to pay you for your content. Get on patreon or something.

I think they do this because it's cheap and easy content to make. Bitching about YouTube and riling up your fanbase is a cottage industry.
